He Xuebin was delighted: "That's right, we still have two requests that we haven't made yet. Why don't we just ask Director Liu to change places?"
"I guess not." Fang Xiuzhu also thought about it, but since Director Liu had tried every possible way to send them here, he would definitely not let them change their destination so easily.
"What should we do? Do we really have to fulfill the wish of that old fox Director Liu and stay in the desert for three periods of time?" He Xuebin felt sick when he thought of this result.
Xu Qi said worriedly, "Forget about going to the desert. I'm just afraid he'll come up with something to mess with us again."
"I don't think we're really going to the desert," He Xuebin said, still holding onto a glimmer of hope. "Besides, doesn't the postcard we chose have a river and a forest? It doesn't look like a desert at all."
Hearing this, Lu Chuanbei's face darkened. "You're just assuming that. I asked Xiao Gao when I came here just now, and from what he said, I think the postcard we chose is quite different from the real thing."
He Xuebin looked at him dumbfoundedly: "No way, can this be faked?"
"Director Liu's work, what's impossible?" Xu Qi's words stunned He Xuebin. "Director Liu wouldn't really treat us like this, would he?"
"We'll probably know in a moment."
Fang Xiuzhu had barely finished speaking when Zhang Bosong, wearing a large straw hat, walked in from the airport entrance, waving his hand. "Hello, my friends. It's been so long since we last met. I wonder if you've missed me a lot."
"I've missed you all so much, so I'll be your guide this time, taking you to our destination today. Let's look forward to the journey ahead!"
Zhang Bosong didn't give them a chance to speak and finished speaking.
Lu Chuanbei looked at the people who were busy walking out and couldn't help but click his tongue: "So...how did he know that we missed him?"
"I don't know, but I don't have it." He Xuebin said hurriedly.
"Me too. There are so many people I could think of. Why would I want such a jerk like him?" Xu Qi said with disdain.
Fang Xiuzhu didn't even bother to look at him: "What do you think, should we just go home now?"
"I think it's okay."
"I think so."
"Let's go, let's buy plane tickets before our phones are taken away." He Xuebin took out his phone without saying a word and was about to buy tickets.
Upon seeing this, Zhang Bosong, who had already left, quickly shouted to the staff nearby: "What are you still standing there for? Take their phones and luggage away!"
All of a sudden, the staff took action and confiscated Lu Chuanbei and his friends' cell phones and luggage and took them away.
Only Lu Chuanbei and the others were left, feeling suddenly relieved. They watched Zhang Bosong shout triumphantly in front of them with empty hands, "Alright, your luggage and cell phones have been kidnapped by us now. If you want to get your things back, just follow us."
Looking at Zhang Bosong's smug look, Xu Qi couldn't bear to tell him that even if their luggage was taken away, they could still buy tickets back by other means.
He Xuebin stared at him silently and couldn't help but sigh. "If it weren't for the contract, I'd really regret not coming here. Otherwise, if I were to be with such a fool all day, I'm afraid my IQ would become like his before I even realize it."
"Forget it." Fang Xiuzhu said with a frown, "For the sake of the contract, let's just go along with him. Otherwise, if we get Old Zhang mad at us and he starts crying, that won't be a good scene."
"Puff..." Lu Chuanbei couldn't help but imagine it, and was almost blinded by the scene: "Brother Fang, you'd better not say such scary things."
Netizens also have a sense of the picture.
[No, this picture is too beautiful, I dare not look at it]
[You should just go along with Old Zhang. Otherwise, if he really cries, the scene... No, I can't imagine it. Otherwise, I won't be able to watch this live broadcast anymore.]
[This picture is poisonous. I need to find some beautiful photos to cleanse my eyes.]
[Haha, are you sure it’s not an eyesore? ]
Zhang Bosong, who still didn't know that he had become a hot topic because of Fang Xiuzhu's words, was still looking at Lu Chuanbei and others who followed behind him with pride, and looked at Xiao Gao on the side: "Well, in the end, you still have to rely on me."
Xiao Gao suppressed his laughter and nodded quickly: "Yes, Brother Zhang, you are the best at dealing with guests."
"That's all I need to know. Learn more from me in the future." Zhang Bosong said, pulling out a small red flag used by tour guides from his pocket and waving it at the people who caught up with him: "Follow closely, don't fall behind."
[Look at the temperament of this tour guide, Brother Zhang, he has it all under control]
[I was holding it in just now, but I didn't expect the words above to completely break my defense...]
[Pfft… I’m sorry, Brother Zhang, I really couldn’t help myself, but I really didn’t expect Brother Zhang to go for the serious and funny route.]
[That's right, I was really fooled by his previous sly appearance. In fact, he is actually a fool, and a funny fool at that.]
For a time, Zhang Bosong’s original personality was directly overturned by netizens.
Director Liu looked at Zhang Bosong's rising popularity, and a smile flashed in his eyes: "It seems that this silly boy has finally seized his opportunity this time."
Zhang Bosong, who still didn't know he was famous, took Lu Chuanbei and the others on a bus. After the bus started, Zhang Bosong contentedly put the small red flag in his arms and said to Lu Chuanbei and the others, "Okay, our desert journey is about to begin. Before that, let me introduce you to the Taklamakan Desert where we are going."
"①The Taklamakan Desert is located in the center of the Tarim Basin in southern Xinjiang, my country. It is the largest desert in my country, the tenth largest desert in the world, and the second largest mobile desert in the world. The entire desert..."
Under Zhang Bosong's introduction, the bus slowly drove forward. Korla is only more than 70 kilometers away from Taklamakan. Along the way, they went from the bustling streets full of high-rise buildings, to the gradually deviating roads and low residential buildings, and then to the gradually deserted roads. It took only less than an hour.
And ahead of this road, there is another highway that runs through the entire Taklamakan Desert - the Tarim Desert Highway.
When the bus reached the intersection of the Tarim Desert Highway, it suddenly stopped.
Zhang Bosong smiled at Lu Chuanbei and the others and said, "We've arrived at the Tarim Highway entrance. Let's stop here for a while and have some lunch before continuing on our journey."
"Finally, I can eat." He Xuebin said as he quickly put down the water on the bus: "Otherwise, I would have to drink enough water first."
"I'm hungry too." Xu Anjia looked expectantly at the small restaurants at the intersection that displayed signs advertising Xinjiang Tarim specialties. "But is there anything good here?"
"Of course." Xu Qi said affirmatively: "This is the entrance to the Tarim Highway. Almost everyone who enters the desert will stop here to rest and eat, so there should be a lot of local Xinjiang delicacies here."
"Really? Then let's go down and take a look." As he said that, Xu Anjia couldn't wait to reach out to Song Tiantian.
After a while, the two little girls ran off the bus holding hands.
Others followed and got out of the car.
On both sides of the Tarim Highway, there are grids made of rolled reeds to prevent quicksand from covering the highway. There are also many sand-blocking fences built with nylon nets and reed rafts. These connected fences and grass grids stretch and rise and fall with the sand dunes, firmly binding the yellow sand and protecting the safety of the highway.
Along this highway, there are countless drought- and sand-resistant plants such as poplar, sand date, and red willow planted using desert groundwater, adding green ribbons to this highway that runs through the entire desert, making it even more eye-catching.
As soon as Song Tiantian got out of the car, her attention was attracted by the endless green belt in front of her.
In the middle of this green channel is the road they will continue to take. Although this seems to be a deserted and lifeless place, this green ribbon has added a lot of vitality and warmth.
"Tiantian, why are you still standing there? Come in quickly!" He Jingnian stood at the door of the small restaurant and greeted Song Tiantian.
"I'm coming." Song Tiantian suppressed the throbbing in her heart and hurriedly turned around and ran towards the small restaurant.
There was a thick curtain hanging at the door of the small restaurant. When I lifted the curtain and went in, I felt a cool breeze.
The cool breeze from the air conditioner instantly took away the temperature they had just been exposed to outside, and made everyone feel a lot better.
He Xuebin breathed a sigh of relief: "Sure enough, it's more comfortable to live in an air-conditioned room in the summer."
"Yeah, but I don't know if there will be air conditioning where we live."
Xu Qi's words made He Xuebin's heart rise. "No way! The production team wouldn't be so cruel as to make us stay in a steam room in such hot weather, right?"
"The room won't be steamed. In Xinjiang, the temperature is only high during the day. If you don't cover yourself with a quilt at night, you'll probably catch a cold." The proprietress said with a smile, holding the menu.
"Yes, yes, yes. I remember there was a saying that goes something like, 'Wear a cotton-padded jacket in the morning and a gauze dress in the afternoon, and eat watermelon around the stove.' Isn't that exactly what Xinjiang is all about?"
"That's right, our Xinjiang is a great place. Now that you're here, you must take a good look around and help promote Xinjiang." As she said that, the proprietress handed over the menu in her hand.
"Okay, we will definitely help promote Xinjiang."
"In that case, I'll give you all some more fruits later. These are local fruits from Xinjiang, and they taste different from those in other places." The proprietress said generously.
"Thank you, Madam."
"The boss lady is so generous."
